How to write this HTTP request in python?

I need to write this HTTP request. I was able to get the token (from another HTTP request) and I saved on in a variable name "Token"

Can you please help me write this HTTP request in python? I am getting 404 and I am pretty sure the syntax is wrong.

Attaching a screenshot from Microsoft documentation.

enter image description here

the new error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/talcohen/opt/anaconda3/lib/python3.9/site-packages/requests/models.py", line 972, in json
    return complexjson.loads(self.text, **kwargs)

    return _default_decoder.decode(s)

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Looking at the API you should probably do:

import requests

token = "<YOUR TOKEN>"
api_url = "https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/profiles"
headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {token}"}

payload = {"displayName": "My First Profile"}

data = requests.post(api_url, json=payload, headers=headers).json()
print(data)
